Pros

If you're a people person and have a good attitude, you will find this job very rewarding. I wouldn't trade some customer experiences for the world. When in public or meeting new people in town, they usually say, "Do you work at Hy-Vee?" This is good honest work and I've been fortunate to have such a great team to help teach and learn from.

Cons

Its a fast paced job, so you get physically drained and usually mentally exhausted. Most of the shift is spent on your feet. I can, at times, find myself doing 3-4 things at once. This role is the most challenging job of Hy-Vee - you are the direct connection between management and the customer. But, stay focused, ask the right questions, delegate, follow up, and don't take too many things personally - That's what I've done and I feel successful in my role.

Pros

Paid breaks. Can be lazy and get the same pay as a hard worker.

Cons

Your high efforts are not rewarded. Benefits only include the time you put into retail that can be considered experience. Although you have the title for a specific position you will still be forced to complete tasks of another position. Although I was a checker, I was also put on hot food line, samples, cart duty, cleaning bathrooms, cleaning spills, watching self check out, stocking, and many more. Any sense of enjoyment with other coworkers gets shut down quick by management. Availability can be ignored by management. Lots of drama with coworkers. No penalty for inappropriate and unprofessional work. Management cares about business more than employees even though it is “employee owned”.
